Ep. 95 - JOHN JORGENSON ("Souvenirs de Nos Pères")

John stops by Songcraft World Headquarters to talk about how Disneyland became his musical proving ground; the "slightly devious" way he got Chris Hillman to co-found the Desert Rose Band; what he learned from watching Elton John write songs; why he turned down auditions to tour with Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen; how he ended up collaborating with Rodney Crowell, JD Souther, Peter Frampton, and other greats; and how he became a Django Reinhardt disciple and the American master of  gypsy jazz.
